DAVID ARCHYMen's Briefs Rayon Made From Bamboo Underwear No Fly Pouch Breathable Super Soft Comfort Underpants 4 or 7 Pack

My preferred type of underwear for pretty much my entire life has been the mid-rise brief, and for many years now my go-to brand has been the Hanes tagless mid-rise briefs. Unfortunately, over at least the last two purchases of the Hanes briefs I had noticed a dramatic decrease in quality and have been looking for an alternative for some time. I've been curious about brands such as Duluth Trading and Tommy John and so forth, but I'm sorry folks - as much as I want comfortable underwear there is NO WAY you're going to see me paying 30 bucks or more for a pair! So I did rather extensive research before my purchase and would like to share with you some of what I discovered.It seems that The Thing today with most of the "designer" underwear manufacturers is Micromodal fabric. You'll see varying qualities of Micromodal offered by different manufacturers - 40s, 80s, Micromodal Air and such, but they're simply variations on the same thing: Micromodal is a synthetic fabric produced from the chips of beechwood trees and comprises 90 to 95 percent of most of these underwear brands with the rest being Spandex. Now normally I think of a "synthetic" fabric as being something like polyester or nylon produced from derivatives of petroleum products so I'm not sure why something made essentially from trees is called "synthetic", but there it is. Micromodal is supposed to be smoother, lighter and stronger than cotton and much better at moisture wicking - that is to say staying dry to your skin. It's often described in terms of being silky, but I think that's a bit inaccurate: to me, silky implies a cool, smooth sensation where, while very smooth, Micromodal seems to be to be temperature neutral rather than cool. This is a good thing and I think it is why so many people describe these as feeling like you're not wearing any underwear at all. In sensory terms, it essentially disappears against your skin, resulting in the feeling of having support without substance. And that is a very good thing.My research on the fabric convinced me that it was worth trying, so I began searching for underwear that used Micromodal but didn't cost a fortune...and that's how I discovered the David Archy products here on Amazon. Where most brands are asking about 30 bucks a pair, Amazon has these right now at four pair for $17.99. That's more like it. I have usually worn my Hanes in a size 32-34 because, while my waist is actually closer to 36, I prefer my underwear a bit on the snug side. But having seen reviews that said the David Archy briefs tend to run a bit small, I ordered the Large (36-38) size. I just got them two days ago, so this is a preliminary review based on initial impressions, but I promise to come back and update with my findings after multiple wearings and washings with my observations on longer term comfort, stretching, sagging, colorfastness and so forth. The briefs seem to be very well constructed. They are extremely light weight except for the waistband which is comfortably wide and substantial. The back is seamless and the front is flyless - which I am completely used to and is fine with me. Trying them on, I find they are very smooth and - as I said earlier - not exactly "silky" but rather temperature neutral so that it really does feel like you're wearing nothing at all, except that the Family Jewels are supported comfortably in place. There is no sensation of cutting or friction in the crotch area or movement against the skin as you sit, stand, walk, crouch, bend, etc. They're just...there. Very, very nice. My wife says they look good on me and her opinion is the ONLY one that matters in that department.Right out of the box, first time on, they fit absolutely perfectly...and that is my primary concern at this point. If, after several wearings and washings they wind up stretching or sagging at all, they will be a bit too loose for my taste - and that's why I promise to come back and report what happens after a period of use. In fact, I'm going to order a size smaller even before I have the chance to fully evaluate these just in case - because even if they do sag or stretch a bit after some wear they are comfortable enough that I'd be willing to take a smaller size through a break-in period to get them in the long run to fit and feel the way they do right now. Of course, there's still the issue of durability to address and I'll report on that as well. But for now, absolutely five stars for these underwear. They seem to be everything they promise to be and compared to pretty much everything else on the market the price point is outstanding!One last note - and this one is a bit of a spoiler. Even if these had been terrible underwear I would have given them four stars for one reason alone. They come with a double, easily removable tag on the waistband: one tag has the washing and care instructions. The other tag has the size and fabric composition...and this note at the top of the tag: "Tear it off along the line. Or give it to your mother. She knows how to do it." I love it - absolutely love it. This is my kind of company - one not only with a sense of humor, but a clear understanding of their target audience...men. And whether we will admit it or not, every guy alive knows deep down that when it comes to some things (and underwear is definitely one of those things) mom still knows best.UPDATE: Four months and many washings and wearings later these underwear still rate 5 stars. My second order, as promised, was for the mediums rather than the large and, while the difference is minimal, the mediums I think are a tiny bit more snug which is what I prefer - so my third order was for mediums - as will be all future orders. But it really is a very small difference - so much so that I couldn't tell you which size I'm wearing right now. They are holding up perfectly; no sag, no perceptible wear. Most comfortable underwear I have ever owned.

I have finally found the perfect pair of underwear. The pouch is big enough for my junk, the rear material is tight and doesn't sag, doesn't ride up, softest underwear I've ever felt. Price for 7 pairs is good. Nice material. Seems breathable and naturally cool. My stuff looks real good in them too.

I was getting a lot of chafing from my boxers when I was going on long walks or rucks in hot weather so I thought I would try a minimalist set of underwear. These are crazy cheap compared to deisgner versions and the quality is quite good. Very comfortable and my chafing issues went away. Great for the price and they pack very small when travelling.

These are extremely comfy, great durability, colors, and extra room for those that desire it.For me i wish the pouch was deeper.

Stretchy and cooling

I’ve been a customer for close to 10 years now. This product disappointed especially know and still owning older items. The initial impression was good, they are super thin, soft, breathable and single layered - pretty hard to find in men’s wear. However, after one wear (working from home) I found the fabric pilling. I had hoped given the number of positive reviews however, the quality is not there. This product is unfortunately another that fails to meet any of its predecessors standards. Sadly David Archy is no longer a quality product.

soy talla 32 de pantalón y me quedo perfecto la talla mediana. me gustaría que esta marca manejara este producto en algodon.

The elastic around the legs do not leave any gaps or openings and fit snug against the legs and groin. You will no longer have gaps or openings like you get with other name brands.The part of the underwear, between your boys and butt, is much higher than traditional underwear; thus, separating you boys from sagging down in that area. They sit well and secure in a nice pouch area of their own.At first glance you will think these underwear are way too small for your privates to fit in; however, they stretch like super soft spandex and form perfectly to your contour. The material is "super soft" and literally gives you the feeling that you are not wearing any underwear at all. You will "not" shift in these underwear no matter how active you are.At the same time you will not feel that you are being crushed or have any tightness. Like I said, it literally feels like you're not wearing anything at all!They look very expensive. The nicest looking underwear I have ever owned. I'm concerned about the thin material and how durable it will be overtime. Only time will tell.For years I have spent hundreds of dollars trying to find underwear that fits well and I have never been happy until now! These underwear are perfect for larger men. Finally, years of searching for the best underwear has finally come to an end. If you find yourself in the same situation I have for my entire life then trust me, buy a pair and see for yourself.
